Cherry and Curly Maple Rocker

By FWW_Gallery, member Oct 24, 2012

Woodworker: Nick BoyntonBoynton says the biggest challenge in making this cherry and curly maple rocker (30 in. deep by 25 in. wide by 40 in. tall) was cutting the three compound-angle slots in the legs. Rather unconventionally, he cuts the laminations with his shopmade bandsaw (FWW #202), and glues them back together without surfacing them. Ten years and 50 chairs later, he stands behind this method as time-tested and efficient. The finish is oil and lacquer. From Fine Woodworking #220
